A method for managing sleep of a user comprises obtaining, by a computing system, sleep data and environmental data for the user; determining, by the computing system, a sleep state of the user based on the sleep data; determining, by the computing system, one or more awakening actions based on the sleep state of the user and the environmental data; and causing one or more devices in an environment of the user to perform the one or more awakening actions to awaken the user.

Systems and methods of dynamic IoT device regulation and control can aid in shifting a user's emotional state from a first state of mind to a preferred second state of mind, using the user's biomarker response to device settings. Particularly, an IoT device controller may be embedded within a wearable device that is wirelessly connected to a computing device and one or more IoT devices. Initially, each wearable device can be calibrated, wherein a matrix of sensed user biomarker responses can be generated. In some embodiments, the system continuously monitors user biomarkers to detect which physiological state exists. When the user enters into the first physiological/psychological state, the system can adjust each IoT device to align with the second state. When the system detects that the user biomarker response has not shifted, the system can continuously adjust IoT settings based upon a learning algorithm having monitored user biomarkers as input.

According to some aspects, disclosed methods and systems may include having a user input one or more speech commands into an input device of a user device. The user device may communicate with one or more components or devices at a local office or headend. The local office or the user device may transcribe the speech commands into language transcriptions. The local office or the user device may determine a mood for the user based on whether any of the speech commands may have been repeated. The local office or the user device may determine, based on the mood of the user, which content asset or content service to make available to the user device.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for identifying impairment using measurement devices.

The present disclosure provides a method for determining preference implemented by a processor, comprising: providing image content to a user; receiving electroencephalogram (EEG) data and gaze data including a series of gaze position data or gaze speed data which is measured while the content is provided; determining the user's region of interest with respect to the content based on the gaze data; determining a saccade onset time based on the gaze data; extracting EEG data during a time period including the saccade onset time, based on the EEG data; and determining whether the user prefers the region of interest based on the EEG data during the time period, and a device for determining preference using the same.

A fragrance suitable for a user can be provided. A mobile terminal includes: an acquisition unit that acquires a psychosomatic state from a physiological index of a user; an input unit that inputs future information of the user; a determination unit that determines a recipe including one or more types and a mixing ratio of one or more perfumes based on the psychosomatic state and the future information; and a communication unit that transmits the recipe to a fragrance generation device.

The present invention relates to a terahertz biometric imaging arrangement configured to be arranged under an at least partially transparent display panel and configured to capture an image of an object located on an opposite side of the transparent display panel, the biometric imaging arrangement comprising: a transmitter element arranged to emit terahertz radiation for illuminating the object; and an image sensor comprising an antenna pixel array arranged to detect terahertz radiation transmitted from the illuminated object, for producing an image.

According to some aspects, disclosed methods and systems may include having a user input one or more speech commands into an input device of a user device. The user device may communicate with one or more components or devices at a local office or headend. The local office or the user device may transcribe the speech commands into language transcriptions. The local office or the user device may determine a mood for the user based on whether any of the speech commands may have been repeated. The local office or the user device may determine, based on the mood of the user, which content asset or content service to make available to the user device.

An information processing device comprising at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to: receive information transmitted to a user; and issue, to a measurement device that measures biological information of the user, a command regarding the measurement in a case where the received information includes risk information, which is information that may affect health or safety of the user, regarding a situation around the user.

A method for generating an acoustic stimulus for use in an ear biometric process on a user, the method comprising: receiving an indication of stimulation frequencies for use in the ear biometric process; grouping the stimulation frequencies into bands of a psychoacoustic scale; generating the acoustic stimulus, the acoustic stimulus comprising a masked bandpass component within each band of the psychoacoustic scale that comprises one or more of the stimulation frequencies.
